is it just a joke or does " All " mean something other than "everybody " ?

OK...I'll be the first to admit that the system here isn't perfect. Nothing is. But you know what? It's waaaay better here than it is in most of the rest of the world.
You know, there are countries where you can't even raise your glass in a toast to freedom without getting shot. And the justice system? Well, check out Red Corner or Brokedown Palace. Just movies, sure...but that DOES happen.
If you're that unhappy with the way things are done, find a way to try and change them. Call your congressman. Start petitions....whatever.

When people gave up hope they lost thier vision for the truth. Without truth there can be no justice. There are a lot of people out there that have decided that politicians are corrupt beyond repair. Rather than do anything they would just rather do nothing, because sitting around and doing nothing is always the way to bring about change. Why dont we all just lie down so its easier for these people to kick us?

The pledge of allegiance was written by Francis Bellamy in 1892. Francis was a socialist preacher who got kicked out for the leftist tone of his sermons.
His original Pledge read as follows: 'I pledge allegiance to my Flag and (to*) the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.' He considered placing the word, 'equality,' in his Pledge, but knew that the state superintendents of education on his committee were against equality for women and African United Statesians.
Those are facts, my interpretation is that given that the US is moving further and further from a moderate social environment were people are the main concern towards one were profitability for corporations are the main social concern, as time goes by our environment reflects more and more the time when the pledge was first written down in an attempt to give everybody a level playing field. So as that happens, today as it was in the 1890's "Liberty and Justice For All" becomes more and more something to aspire since it is being taken away from us.

Social moves do not note to the militia. coverage interior the militia structure should be even if is maximum proper for the warriors and the overall effectiveness of our militia as an complete. If allowing brazenly gay squaddies in would reason any themes, then regulations and bans ought to heavily be seen. If it doesn't appear as if it would reason any issues then there should be no decrease. i do not care which way it is going. I merely care that the alternative is in protecting with what's maximum proper interior the authentic for our militia operations and under no circumstances merely what society thinks is powerful.

At the moment I don't think its a joke, but the way the world is today I wouldn't be surprised in the next ten years it will be a joke, because everyone is out for themselves and don't care what anyone else thinks or does, as long as it's not hurting them why should they care?

It was informally abandoned, along with "indivisible". Shortly after the word "equality" was formally removed from the pledge.

All means everyone. You need to be more specific. What is the problem, and why do you feel it doesn't mean all?
